Patent CA-2543777-C (CA)
Inventor: LANZ DOUGLAS P
IPC: B01D53/32
Filed: 2006-04-18
Granted: 2013-09-24
Abstract: A Non-Thermal Plasma (NTP) and Integral Catalyst System (ICS) is used to treat vent air containing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and/or Halogenated Volatile Organic Compounds (HVOC), some of which may be odorous, and/or fine organic particulate (smoke) emissions to be released into the environment by commercial and/or industrial air venting. The system utilizes one or more dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) electrodes and dielectrics to develop one or more NTP fields so as to create sufficient Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), hydroxyl species and other highly ionized molecules and atomic species in combination with catalytic functions so as to cause the oxidation and/or reduction of VOC's and/or HVOCs and/or fine organic particulate contaminants in the air streams to be decomposed to simpler, non pollutant, non odorous compounds that can be subsequently released into the environment. The system works by drawing atmospheric pressure air and/or gas, which may or may not be contaminated, through the NTP fields that are created by Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) apparatus and mixing this air with the air and/or gas to be treated or by passing all air and/or gas to be treated through the DBD cells or any combination thereof. The DBD apparatus is designed with a catalyst material integral to the DBD cells and an optional additional catalyst immediately after the cells and is designed to pass large scale air flows typical of commercial or industrial processes. When large volumes of gas and/or high VOC and/or HVOCs and/or contaminant load in combination with large gas volumes must be treated multiple units can be combined in parallel and/or series and/or series parallel to treat the gas.

Abstract: A patient care system in which a physiological parameter of a patient is monitored while the patient self-administers analgesic. A display presents a trend of the patient~s physiological parameter along with the time of self-administration of the analgesic (~PCA~-patient controlled analgesic) such that the effect of the analgesic on the physiological parameter can be seen over selectable time periods. The physiological parameter may be ETCO2 or SpO2 or other. Also included is a drug library having acceptable pumping parameters that is outside an acceptable range, or should the patient attempt to self-administer more analgesic than the acceptable range permits, or should a patient~s physiological parameter change during infusion such that a pumping parameter becomes outside an acceptable range, an indication of such will be given and action, such as stopping the pump, will be taken.

Title: Phase detector for rotating equipment
Inventor: CHENG CHENG GI
IPC: G01D5/20
Filed: 2006-09-15
Granted: 2010-07-20
Abstract: A very accurate rotational phase detection system is disclosed having first and second disks that are encoded with a 31-digit pseudo-random M-sequence, the first and second disks being attached to rotationally-coupled members. In the disclosed embodiment, the encoding is accomplished by dividing the disks into 31 sections and contouring the periphery of the disks such that sections corresponding to "1 " have a larger radius and sections corresponding to "0" have a smaller radius. Sensors-for example, inductive proximity sensors-are positioned near the periphery of the first and second disks that detect the encoded pseudo-random sequences and are periodically sampled (for example, at 50 kHz) to generate first and second detected sequences. The first and second detected sequences are processed to remove noise and to range between +1 and - 1, and are then cross-correlated to determine the rotational phase relationship between the attached rotating members.

Abstract: This invention describes a method for a cell reselection by a mobile station from a serving GERAN cell supported by a GSM/EDGE (global system for mobile communications/enhanced data rates for GSM evolution) radio access network (GERAN) to a UTRAN cell supported by a universal terrestrial radio access network (UTRAN). According to a first embodiment of the invention, the intended intersystem reselection behavior is reached without signaling changes. This can be a preferred mode for early implementations because signaling changes always take a longer time to reach the products on the field (both mobile and network updates are normally required). According to a second embodiment of the invention, the flexibility of signaling changes is used for an advantage.

Abstract: The invention relates to cardiac-activity based prediction of a rapid drop in a patient's blood pressure during hemodialysis. A proposed alarm apparatus (100) includes an input interface (110), primary and secondary analysis units (130; 140) and an alarm-generating unit (150). An electrocardiogram signal (HECG) of the patient is received via the input interface (110) by the primary analysis unit (130), which in response thereto produces a heart-rate-variability signal (PHRV)- The secondary analysis unit (140) determines an intensity of ectopic beats (PEBC) based on the electrocardiogram signal (HECG)-The alarm-generating unit (150) investigates whether the intensity of ectopic beats (PEBC) is relatively low or relatively high. In case of a relatively low intensity, the unit (150) triggers an alarm signal (.alpha.) indicative of an estimated rapid blood pressure decrease if the heart-rate- variability signal (PHRV) fulfills a first alarm criterion. In case of a relatively high intensity, however, the unit (150) triggers the alarm signal (.alpha.) if the intensity of the ectopic beats (PEBC) fulfils a second alarm criterion.

Abstract: A method is provided for multiple remote units (RU)s to efficiently utilize resources on a shared OFDM high speed data channel without collisions. A collision occurs when two or more RUs transmit on the same frequency at the same time. The method defines two distinct states for accessing the channel. These are the Arbitration state and the Data Transfer state. A base station transmits a flag on the downlink to notify the RUs of which state is in effect. RUs having a data message notify the base station by transmitting a frequency tone, which acts as a request to transmit data, during the arbitration state. The tone frequencies are frequency spaced to be mutually orthogonal, so that the base station can receive all the uplink requests simultaneously. Upon receiving the uplink request signals, the base station establishes the data transfer state and orders the uplink data messages from the remote units is a non-interfering sequence. A system for preventing uplink data message collisions in an OFDM communications system is also provided.
